Aaron and I had a fun day. We played the beach ball game in the house a couple times, we went to the pool, we watched T.V. together and we did about 4 or 5 puzzles together. Aaron had his final soccer game of the season last Thursday (6/5/08).

The coaches had a party for both teams and all of the kids got a trophy for playing. They had all kinds of great stuff for the kids, pizza, cupcakes, fruit and veggie platters, soccer tattoos, a trampoline, a tire swing and a cool tree house. At the end of the party, all of the kids got a cool trophy.

We came back from Aaron’s soccer party tonight and started the bedtime routine about 45 minutes late because of the party. We came into Aaron’s room and I put some water into his fish tank since it keeps losing water somehow. Meri came in with Eli and was looking at the tank and I said “I put extra water in it” and she said “that’s not why I’m looking at it”. It turns out that one of Aaron’s fish, named Orange (see picture below) died. R.I.P. Orange, Aaron will miss you very much!

We bought Aaron a fish tank as a reward for behaving so well for a long time. He loved it. Here are a couple of pictures of Aaron’s fish tank and his final surviving fish, Grapey.

Aaron had his first soccer practice today! He had a ton of fun running around and kicking the ball with the other kids. Most of the kids are around his age but some of them are a bit older (I think there is a 5 year old on his team). He was hot, sweaty and very tired by the time we got home. Below are some pictures:
